Details

Now here's a bass you don't see every day. Phantom Guitar Works Phantom IV bass, built in Oregon, 32" scale, standard .750 string spacing, Kent Armstrong designed humbucking pickups under those sexy white covers, solid mahogany body, and a nice J profile neck that is not too skinny around the back. Plays remarkably well, action is low, truss rod is perfect ( although you do have to remove the neck to get to the adjustment nut ),and weighs in under 8 lbs.
Soundwise, it has a strong Rickenbacker flavor to it, but no clankiness. I've used it live, and was very surprised how well it cut through while still being supportive, quite versatile.

Full disclosure- has a few nicks through the paint, and one or two tiny doinks along the edges of the headstock. Ships in a decent, clean Levys bag. $500 to your door.

Let me know if you're interested in swapping for my Japanese Fender Jaguar Bass from the 90s as pictured here. It's a solid bass with only one noteworthy nick on the body (have used in the studio - as pictured here), but these days I just don't play it much. I tend to play my 69' Teisco Vox Phantom Copy and my Hallmark Swept Wing bass on stage over the Jaguar (it's still my favourite Fender bass though). I live in Victoria, BC, so it wouldn't be too much of a headache to do a trade if you're interested. Let me know if you're interested and I can send you some more pics.

Blindrabbit, I'll gladly take this bass off your Torture GAS list.

You got some dosh you can lend me to do so? What's that? You'd buy it yourself if you had mitts full of money?

All joshing aside... Bahbump for a great looking bass from a fellow Canuckian.
